Oh no! If they take out Doncaster, who will eat all the Gregg's?

Paraglider pilot here. A paraglider would be literally the worst way to invade/attack/terrorist-whatever any target. You need the right wind conditions to launch (or you have to have someone tow you up, but that only gets you so high); if there are no thermals, you can’t travel any kind of distance (unless your target is on a coastal ridge with onshore wind); you pretty much have to “attack” during the day (for above reasons); you move incredibly slowly (trim speed for your average wing is around 25-3mph); and you need both hands to operate the controls (I guess you could have a tandem passenger to work the weapons or whatever, but then you’re 2 people for every one weapon you have). Paramotors (paraglider plus big ass fan) makes all of this even less ideal, since you’re still very slow moving, and you’re loud.

In conclusion, this lady is a nutcase and badly needs a hobby.

I agree with the "nutcase" diagnosis but I think she just can't tell paragliders and parachutes apart and thought these were paratroopers. Which Hamas somehow has now.

I'd watch this Red Dawn reboot.

These are the same types of idiots that think they're going to be targets of a terror attack in some small backwater town.

These types of propaganda methods really resonate with boomer types.

I remember someone that thought that they were going to be mailed anthrax back when they had the anthrax scare in the US.

  1. How much anthrax do you think terrorists have that they could afford to mail it to you, a random person in the US?

  2. Why do you think you're so important that you're going to be targeted?

You need to either be clueless or really full of yourself to think these scenarios apply to you.

The only time you're possibly going to be caught up in something is if you're going to an important or significant place, or you're interacting with people much more important than you are.

Aw naw! They're comin' from Bradford!

[–] RedFrank24@lemmy.world 6 points 5 days ago

"AAAHHH! Hamas are attacking... Doncaster?"

I've seen those and thought it looked like fun. But not quite enough fun in the potential "cost/benefit" analysis. Mostly it's just hanging out, sitting around.
